Waiting on the Lord
I just came back from a conversation where a Christian brother said these refreshing words: ¬†”We’re just going to wait on the Lord.” ¬†He was talking about a situation in which he and his wife could easily get alarmed, thrown into a frenzy, and start racing around trying to find a resolution. ¬†But seeing the temptation for what it is, they are resisting the impulse of the flesh and listening to the voice of Truth.
I have no doubt that many of you have found yourself in a similar situation.  Perhaps you are in one right now Рa circumstance that can throw you into a dither, get you all worried and worked up inside.  Yet in the midst of your inner storm, the voice of Truth whispers,
Be still and know that I am God . . .
Cast all your care on Me, for I care for you . . .
Trust in Me . . .
Commit your way to Me . . .
Delight yourself in Me . . .
Rest in Me, and wait patiently for Me . . .
Several months ago I posted a song that my cousin wrote with this theme in mind.  I think it is a good time to post it again.  I pray it will help you to wait on the Lord.
